I don’t think many people here eat peanuts or peanut butter since it can be problematic for a variety of reasons but what are your thoughts on these peanuts and peanut butter? It is not dry roasted and it very difficult to find organic peanuts not dry roasted. For this reason it may be easier on the gut and to digest.
Link to what they look like and a brand that makes stone ground wild jungle pb.
Peanuts are in the middle of nuts as far as carbohydrate content. I eat some, sometimes, and know that I’m eating a relatively high-carb food, compared to most of what I eat.
I’ve had good peanut butter made from ground-up peanuts, nothing else. Same for almond butter made from almonds.
If it doesn’t have added stuff - which is usually going to be sugar and seed oils just dumped right into what is sold - then I think it’s way better; pretty good - though substantial carbs are present.
Contrast that with something like ‘Peter Pan’ - which is sold to a LOT of people in the U.S. After “Roasted Peanuts” in the list of ingredients, then come "Sugar, Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil, Hydrogenated Rapeseed Oil, Salt, Partially Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil.
Gaah! 
You’d spend $60 for half a pound of peanuts? Ouch!!! I notice that my husband’s roasted peanuts contain peanuts, salt and peanut oil. Not sure l need more peanut oil. I’ve seen organic raw in shell for $5 per pound. I hear they’re also not difficult to grow.
At a whole foods store in my neighbourhood, you can grind your own peanuts. Definitely no additives there!
I like peanuts, but they do nasty things to my digestion.
~50 years ago or more, one of my brothers had one of these things - a ‘Mr. Peanut peanut butter maker.’ Ground up peanuts and it was darn good. I’m guessing they were made from the 1960s into the 1990s.
Ooh, I want one! Much more fun than loading peanuts into a hopper and pushing a button on the machine! 
Paul, it was my brother Dean - probably 10 or 11 years old (he’s 2 years younger than me, now a retired Air Force Major working in the private sector) - and the whole family was surprised at how good the peanut butter was. As I recall, it was said that if left for weeks or months, some oil would separate from the more solid matter; but it would essentially always be eaten immediately in my family’s real-time. Worst case, stir it up or just eat as is, savoring the difference between the oil and the rest. 
And… I recall thinking along the lines of, "Well, yeah, this is good, but how can it be as good as ‘store-bought’? " Have to laugh…
Now, it’s a clear-cut example of a food where the processors usually add sugar and seed oils. Good grief! I wouldn’t be surprised if they remove all or part of the peanut oil (because it works well in other applications) and then add canola, cottonseed or palm oils to make up the difference.
Does Dean still have it? And would he be willing to part with it?
I try to limit my PB consumption because I have a hard time with the stopping part, but I eat normal PB! I stay away from the ones with Canola for obvious reasons, but the super clean no ingredient ones just don’t taste that good. They don’t taste bad, but not as good either. If I’m gonna eat it, i want it to be awesome. I spent years only buying those and regretted it.
Same argument I have with Grass Fed beef, flavors just not there. When I started with Butcher Box it was, which was amazing, but that changed with their sources so no point spending the extra $$.
I agree with you about a lot of grass-fed beef. I just want to note, however, that proponents of regenerative farming argue that the profile of the grasses on which the animal is fed makes a huge difference in taste, and they assert that their grass-fed tastes a lot better. If you know of a farm that practices regenerative methods, it might be worth giving their grass-feed meat a try.
did you ever try grind your own organic? I get mine at Whole Foods. I’ve noticed some batches of peanuts taste better than others. Their jarred organic nothing added brand doesn’t taste good at all. Why this is I am not sure. I don’t eat jarred peanut butter anymore.
As for these wild jungle peanuts, I am thinking the earthiness may grow on you, but I don’t know.
I don’t doubt that at all, makes perfect sense with them eating better, I mean you can see the difference in the fat color, but I’ve also heard other arguments that although things like the Omega profiles are better, that they only are to negligible levels. Honestly never really looked into it much since even if it was decent… the whole taste thing. If Butcher Box didn’t change their meats, I would have just stayed with it, but it went downhill pretty bad. At least where I am, probably different in different parts of the country.
I have a can of Kirkland (Costco’s brand) peanuts and the ingredients are peanuts, peanut oil, and salt. We call them ‘emergency peanuts’ and keep them in the car for times when someone gets hungry and needs a handful to be tided over to the next meal. I suppose if I went over a cliff or broke down in a snow bank and had to live in my car for a few days they would work for that sort of ‘emergency’ too.
About the meat… I was raised in a family of hunters and you can absolutely tell the difference in deer and elk meat based on what it grazed on. I am sure beef is the same.
